Christmas at Gramma's

We flew into vist Gramma the Tuesday afternoon before Christmas. Our plan was to spend a few days with Gramma & Auntie M, then drive to visit Granny & Pa for a week. Then come back to Gramma's for a late Christmas and New Years. But Gramma was too eager and excited for Christmas. So the same night we arrived, we had "Christmas."
 

The kids were very excited to see that Gramma had a tree, too.
And, especially, that there were presents under her tree!


And Ruth? Yes, she was excited about packages ;)


Nathan got some neat things from his Aunt Kristen & Uncle Dave.
Art supplies, a monster truck hauler, a new book... he loves it all!



And Nathan loved opening Ruth's gifts for her, and showing her what she got.


Ruth loves to wiggle with her bouncy, vibrating elephant toy!


And Faith? LOVE LOVE LOVES her first Barbie!




Another fun toy from Aunt Kristen & Uncle Dave!


And a monster truck hauler for Nathan.


Ruth appears to be thinking... "who cares about presents, look at all the ornaments waiting to go in my mouth!"


Faith got a princess crown ornament.


And Nathan got a big monster truck from Auntie M!
He was VERY excited about that!!


And Faith got lots of things, too - but her favorite present was her Gramma ;)


Gramma got each kid their own carry-on luggage.
They've already gotten lots of use hauling their clothes to Granny & Pa's.
And storing toys while at Gramma's, too.


And those carry-ons??? They were full of more presents!!




The kids have seriously been spoiled!
They love all their presents and find such joy in all the simple things, as well!


Like Ruth... she loves her elephant, musical remote, and singing dinosaur.
But she really loved the jingle bells on Daddy's stocking ;)
 
Thank you, Gramma, Auntie M, Uncle Dave & Aunt Kristen, for another wonderful Christmas!
